The Oscar nominations are, quite frankly, a mess, despite some highs (NICKEL BOYS! MEMOIR OF A SNAIL!) But if there was any further proof needed that the Academy kinda sucks, it would be that Saoirse Ronan hasn't received a nomination for THE OUTRUN, despite it being the finest work of her career.

One of the best books about the movies you'll ever read!
2 copies left in stock of @jasondashbailey.bsky.social's book Fun City Cinema, about New York movies. I wrote the introduction. Jason's book is a remarkable work of film history, with snappy writing, tons of context, and often surprising images. mzs.press/SIGNED-Fun-C...
